Cuisinart dgb-900bc

Hello and welcome to this review of the Cuisinart DGB-900BC. Over the course of this short review, I would like to try and inform you all about the key issues and features of this coffee maker. Hopefully after reading you will be able to make a confident decision when it comes to buying your next coffee maker.

The Cuisinart DGB-900BC is a grind and brew machine, this means that one of the biggest hassles of making coffee is removed from the process all together. All we have to do here is pour the appropriate amount of beans into the grind basket and we are good to go. If you are anything like me this will come as a very welcome addition, because when I get up first thing in the morning, I want as little hassle as possible when it comes to making my coffee.

The Cuisinart DGB-900BC also comes with a thermal carafe, I think that this is both a blessing and a curse at the same time. While the thermal carafe has a lot of features that are desirable there are at least a couple that could be done without. First is the fact that the pour rate is reduced, and it can take us quite a while to get a cup of coffee. The second is the fact that we have to take the lid off the carafe to get the last bit of coffee.

After that however there are not many things I can say that are negative about this coffee maker. The coffee brewed is very hot and stays that way for a good few hours after brewing. The carafe also does not need to be pre-heated, as it is heated from beneath by a warming plate. Of course if you still want to pre-warm the carafe you can and you will most likely see better results with regard to how long the coffee stays hot, but it's another of those things we don't really want to have to do first thing in the morning.
